So the greatest common factor 68,63,160 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 477,492,882
2 | 477, 492, 882 |
3 | 477, 246, 441 |
3 | 159, 82, 147 |
53, 82, 49 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 53 x 82 x 49 = 3833172
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3833172
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 68/477,63/492,160/882 is 1/3833172
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 477,492,882 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(477,492,882) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 18
GCF(477,492,882) x common factors =3 x 18 = 54
LCM(477,492,882) = ( 477 × 492 × 882 ) / 54
LCM(477,492,882) = 206991288 / 54
LCM(477,492,882) = 3833172
